TV ANCHORING AND BROADCAST JOURNALISM

Today, television and radio broadcasting have become a very important aspect of our day-to-day lives.  Yet trained humanpower in the areas of TV anchoring and news-casting is hard to come by.  Given that TV Channels are opening up at a phenomenal rate, trained personnel in these areas would certainly be sought after. 

 

The programme will focus on the psychological determinants of effective communication, basic pronunciation and diction, voice modulation, camera friendliness and script writing. Students will get a grounding in Communications theory, after which they will learn to face the camera with confidence.  Students will be taught different anchoring techniques such as how to cover/conduct events in a variety of situations and environments such as political news coverage, celebrity events, sports, crime and entertainment events.
